The history of the town of Marienwalde in the Neumark is closely connected to the history of the Marienwalde Monastery , which was founded in 1286 and abolished in 1549 as a result of the Reformation . After the abolition of the monastery, its goods were added to the sovereign estates; Johann von Küstrin converted the land of the monastery into the Marienwalde office and built the hunting lodge Jägersburg, which was then set up as a forecourt, but was dismantled around the middle of the 18th century and turned into a colony village. In 1607, a state-owned glassworks was built at the official seat, which was in operation until 1825.

Until 1945 the place belonged to the district of Arnswalde and with the district until 1938 to the Prussian province of Brandenburg , from 1938 to 1945 to the province of Pomerania .

Towards the end of the Second World War , Marienwalde was badly damaged in the spring of 1945 during fighting with the Red Army . After the end of the war, the region and the town were placed under Polish administration. Then the German village was renamed Bierzwnik . Unless the German residents had fled before the end of the war, they were subsequently expelled by the local Polish administrative authorities .

The village is now a district and the official seat of Gmina Bierzwnik in the powiat Choszczeński in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship (1975-1998 Gorzów Voivodeship ( Landsberg ad Warthe )).
